In the annual survey conducted The Harris Poll, the NFL is still the most
popular sport among American adults, easily outdistancing the
second-most-popular sport, Major League Baseball.
Harris Poll 年度调查指出,美足(NFL)依然是美国成年人最喜欢的职业运动,大幅领先
第二名的职业棒球(MLB)。
Of those surveyed, 33% of American adults picked pro football as their
favorite sport, up from 32% a year ago, but still behind its peak in 2011 at
36%. Meanwhile, the number of people who picked baseball dropped from 16% in
2014 to 15% this past year. At its peak popularity in 2011, the NFL had a 23%
lead over MLB. That gap is now just 18%.
调查指出,33%的美国成年人最喜欢NFL(前年32%),但仍低于2011年的36%最高支持度。
同时,MLB的支持率从16%降为15%。2011年NFL比MLB多了23%,去年则降为18%。
Meanwhile, the popularity of pro basketball (NBA) drops to 5%, behind college
football and auto racing, a place the sport has held consistently since the
Michael Jordan era when the NBA nearly caught MLB in popularity.
另外,NBA的支持率只有5%,比大学美足和职业赛车还低。
值得一提的是,只有Jordan在的时代NBA还能跟得上MLB。
(Jordan 2003退休后NBA支持率大幅下降)
